Sponsorship plays a pivotal role in the vitality and sustainability of smaller live summer theatres.
Intimate venues such as Port Stanley Festival Theatre serve as vibrant cultural hubs, enriching communities with the magic of live performance.
However, their modest scale often means limited resources and financial constraints.
And so sponsors like Rick Nemett with the Port Stanley Lions Club are truly a lifeline.
Port Stanley Festival Theatre’s 2024 summer season is less than two weeks away from launching.
This year’s productions explore cows and curling while searching for Bigfoot and birds.
None of this would be possible without the support of their loyal show sponsors like Jean Vedova at the Kettle Creek Inn.
Vedova stresses the important role the theatre plays in the community and equally important as a drawing card for visitors to Port Stanley.
Community sponsors are the cornerstone upon which small live summer theatres can continue to shine brightly, captivating audiences and enriching lives for generations to come.
Corporate supporters like Sue Nemett with the Port Stanley Lioness who have great respect for the cultural vitality of the staff and volunteers at Port Stanley Festival Theatre.
The 2024 summer season launches May 21 with skinny dipping and scrapbooking as The Beaver Club makes a triumphant return to Port Stanley Festival Theatre.
